This is not the way the political and social winds are blowing. But, when all you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail.

We either evolve to meet the changing times or we are relegates to the dustbin of history. We must evolve.

To not obey.

Illegitimi non carborundum.

The swing from heirarchical patriarchy to a more balanced approach of meritocratic matriarchy is being met with the typical learned response of stereotypical male behavior: kill it when it doesn’t immediately bow to my will. Completely strip power away from my enemies.

Capitulation to stop the whining constant male winge is a behavioral reaction, even though one’s previous stance is appropriate and will yield the better outcome.

Taco does the constant male winge to perfection. Problem is, we are tired of this tactic.

While advantageous for advertising, for interhuman communication, it is deletorious. It is not ‘winning’ or ‘being dominant.’ It is antithetical to building community and a type of bullying behavior.

‘I’ll wear you down to ‘yes,’’ is not how one listens to build community consensus.

Just a short post as I’m still thinking about all I learned and experienced in my home state recently.

I’ve been trying to figure out how the stereotypical male response to keep saying the same thing over and over to ‘get his way’ is a learned behavior or simply a male behavior.

Picture from a car in Bush AK. Gravel road, tundra, some trees with a lake and mountains in the background.

Really cool cloud formation … kind of like the hull of an ocean-going ship above a gravel pad, a gentle hill covered in AK woods.

I realized that I haven’t posted for a bit. I had to take a bit of a break for health reasons — all this craziness spiked my TBI symptoms. Currently, I’m in AK for a minute.

Here is where I am:

I drove public bus during the 2020 federal riots in Portland, OR. TriMet buses kept mostly to routes & Schedules. Bus drivers are still grappling with working in a pandemic & during Krasnov’s first attempted insurrections against our government.

My empathy to public bus drivers in affected cities.

Big Idea of the Day: Leveling the Playing Field Nicolle Wallace on MSNBC had Scott Galloway on as a guest this last week. He said some great things and I agreed with what he had to say more often than not. There was one quote that I had to think on...

@profgalloway.com, how would you respond to this article?

The Trump crime family and Pres Taco himself are responsible for the authoritarian regime in Serbia losing it’s grip on power. Per TRMS this Mon, because of Pres Taco’s insist push to build something in Europe and breaking the law, the Serbs are fed up with their regime and are protesting!

Despite what Pres. TACO’s regime says, he has NEVER had a mandate.

He, his regime & his collaborators are actively engaging in a coup d’état. He needs the majority who oppose him to think they are a minority. We are not. We are the majority.

Do not obey.

Illegitimi non carborundum.

And, if English is not your first language, your brain needs additional time to figure out what is being said.

I say this as a polyglot who is recovering from TBI. The brain is incredible, but it does need time to process and get the body to respond.

This causes trauma to the people as they try to process what is happening and what is expected.

It’s like armchair boxing fans saying they’d be able to miss the second head punch. The brain needs time to comprehend what just happened before it can direct the body to respond.

The problem with police training is that they shout to disorient, expect immediate submission even though they just confused peoples’ brains and use violent take-downs when those orders are not immediately followed.

President 🌮!!

Point and laugh at Krasnov! It will knock him off his run of retribution and force him to figure out how to counter it.

Now, hit him on all the other fronts!

He, his regime & his collaborators are leading a coup against the US.

DOGE still isn’t real.

Illigetimi non carborundum.

Remember when NASA did all the work to make space flights safe? Now, an immigrant (who was in this country illegally for some unknown time) from South Africa and some bald dude think they are smarter than the institutional knowledge of NASA … and, they profit every time their rockets blow up.

I can’t believe I have to post this again: @msnbc.com, #media

Language matters.

DJT and his regime are actively leading a coup d’état against the US.

A weak man in power is still a weak man.

DOGE still isn’t real.

Appeasement never works.

Do not obey.

Illigetimi non carborundum.

This is an old playbook from white supremacists dealing with ‘Indians.’ The US gov’s fav move was to ‘deport’ indiginous peoples of the SW to FL, or put them into reservation ‘schools.’ Just a new extreme by white supremacists.

Re: Krasnov’s 13 yo plane:

Well, now we know that the 35 yo and 34 yo current Air Force One’s are too old for his liking. Apparently, he prefers them younger, too.

Re: Comey’s backdown:

🤦🏻 If he really does think his speech (Instagram of ‘8647’) is nonviolent political speech, he needed to lean into that. Not delete the photo.

He backed down from the bully.

Appeasement never works.

Yes. The revolution will not be televised. The legacy media is asleep at the wheel after a century of having it’s ego stroked. It has forgotten it’s muckracking roots and is now owned by people who have too much money and no ethics.

Tuberville is parrotting Putin’s propaganda. Putin’s army is suffering incredible losses at the moment and the EU is ready to launch even more sanctions against his economy.

This is why dictators always fail at war. The rest of the democratic world shuns them and turns off economic viability.

Yes, it was. But, that was a good day to do it on. Had to lighten it with ‘Slash/Back,’ a fun, sci-fi indigenous movie.

There’s another one out there … I guess a documentary … about current Inuit life mixed in w/old footage from ‘Nanook of the North.’ I can’t remember the title …

🤦🏻

The assignment is very simple: vote no to *everything* Krasnov’s regime and/or his collaborators want. Everything.

Those collaborators in Congress who want to cross the aisle to join the Dems should be welcomed. But, Dems should vote ‘no’ on everything.

Here’s what Dems need to do: hammer Krasnov on his failures in economics, trade and his outright corruption. Explain that to fix everything he’s broken in 100 day will take generations of teamwork from all of us to fix. I’m fairly sure Sen. Warren has plans for the fixes.

Similar to an i-D-10t error?

Why is it that a certain sect of Christians insist on following the Hebrew Bible literally and the New Testament, where their Jesus is found, as a ‘pick your own adventure’ sort of thing? I have never understood this. Can anyone help?

A reminder:

Language matters. Krasnov has a regime to overthrow the US. DOGE is not real.

The best way to stand up to a bully is to stand up to a bully.

Do NOT obey Krasnov’s regime. Find ways to point and laugh at all their mistakes, post them, make the mistakes hurt.

Illigetimi non carborundum

Just watched ‘Bones of Crows’ and ‘Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner’ back to back. Then, ‘Lakota Nation vs United States.’

Reflecting on the Aleut internment of WWII. And, the creation of Marcel Marceau. The sharp end of the resistance spear always comes in unexpected places.

I get a kick out of when people I don’t follow or know block me … it makes me feel powerful.

Krasnov has a regime and collaborators. They are leading a coup against the US.

DOGE is still not real.

Do NOT obey.
